Re: Head Removal, Bolts seized
I just used a short Allen socket with an extension, but I'm going to have to find one made for impact.

Problem we have Stig is trying to get access to it as it is under the can bearing face, I know what your saying but the bolts are still siezed they are not snapped due to overtwisting while removing and the application of heat to the bearing runs with the difference in the metal compounds might well cause damage to the cam bearing faces, which is something else we dont want here.
Nice shout though

Just in case I am well wrong Stig, which is very very possible, I am going to ask a local company who does this to see if they can do it for me, after all I can only ask, I will keep you updated. Cheers
